Tho Mexican Pension Bill,

The Mexican pension bill passed
the house Monday as amended by
the senate with only five dissenting
votes and now goes to the president
for his signature. 1t places on the
pension rolls all the survivors OF
the Mexican war who served sixty
days in Mexico or en-route thereto
or IN any battle, also their surviy-
ing widows who have not remarked,
but only applies to those who have
become 81 years of age or are sub
ject to any disability or dependen-
cy prescribed by existing pension
laws.
1t is estimated that it will give
pensions to about 10000 persons
either soldiers or their widows
The rate Of pension granted is 81
per month. Basing the calculation
upon the number of troops furnish
ed for the Mexican war by each
state, it is estimated that the bill
will give about the following suml
to residents of the states named
Tennessee $275,0OO per annum, AL
ALBANIA 100000, Georgia $4,000
Louisiana $36O,OOO, Kentucky $3.50
600, Texas $4,000, Missouri $3.50

The Inaugural.

Gov-elect Robert Landon Taylor
was inaugurated at II o'clock Mon
day in the hall of the house of rep
resentatives with great pomp. The
hall was deliberately decorated, the
white rose predominating on al
hands, and the immense building
was jammed with beauty and chiv-
airy, which being interpreted means
men and women.
At the appointed hour the senate
filed in, followedssAy the supreme
court. Following came Gov. Bate
and Gov-elect Taylor, and immedi
ateIy next to them came Hon. ALI
Taylor with the wife of the new
| governor, followed by long trair
Ct officials and distinguished mel
and women.
Mr.. Speaker Clapp introduced
Gov. Bate in a short eulogisti(
speech and Gov. Bate proceeded tt
deliver an animated retiring address
that was frequently applauded.
Mr.. Speaker Ewing then intro
duced the incoming governor il
terse and felicitous phrase, and Gu
Bob delivered in clear, sonorous
eloquent manner magnificent in
augural address, full of sense an(
vigorous thought.
Chief Justice Turney administer
ed the solemn oath of office, Boil
TAYLOR kissed the bible, and 10! b,
was governor.
The band played at intervals ant
the people applauded. Everything
was gay and spirited and everybody
was happy.
Hon. Alf. Taylor fulfilled thu
prophe cy which divers people spak'
concerning him, that he would liv'
to see his brother made governor
and be privileged with his own eyes
to behold the glory that should fal
upon the house of Robert. He was
smiling and happy, following Close
behind his brother, decorated witt

rose in the vast hall 1t was pinned
there by a democratic lady.
Thus it was. And thus it is that

Let Some One Else Do It.

Mr.. Morrison was not the man t,
propose tariff legislation, and neitn
er is Mr.. Randall. They lead an
tagonistic wings of the democratic
party and neither can propose any
thing, however merltorlous, thai
will not be distasteful to the oppos
ing faction. They have made them
selves odions to each other on this
particular question.
While we agree with Mr.. Ran
dali's general views on tariff
good faith compels US to object to
his leadership on this question.
We did not SO much object to Mr..
Morrison's bill as we did to tie
man. He made himself odious and
we believed that he was not the
man to lead and we based our OBJ
lection upon this ground. The
same objection lies to MIR. Randall.
The tariff ought to be reduced af-
ter the rule laid down in the demo
cratic platform. The two men rep
Id
tons of that platform. The bill
ought to be engineered by such a
man as McMillin-a man who is
able and shrewd and who CONSTITUTES
the platform by Its exact wording
to mean a reduction of taxes on
accessories and its readjustment so
as to save laborers' wages harmless
and to afford all necessary lnciden-
tai protection. Mr.. Randall enter
tains this precise view, but he is
credited with leaning towards pro-
lection, just as Mr.. Morrison is &C
cused of squirting at free trade.
The country does not want any
II ought to be done by
a sound democrat in whom the peo-
pie have confidence, who is moderate
and compromising. Every demo
arat has his own peculiar view of
what ought TO be done and there
are as many views as there are con-
yressmen. How can we hope for
any c. mpromise of views when an
extremist leads?
